BezNalogovHello. I have installed xubuntu. The strange thing is that after I log in I get a black screen with a terminal screen. No desktop. How can I solve this?09:55
Kaapahello - how can I configure my laptop to automatically switch from ondemand to powersave while on battery?10:35
ThePendulumHello there10:46
Fudgehi11:33
Fudgewhats the command to unmute sound? is it alsactl set-sink-volume 100 100 or something like that11:34
TVasEyesFudge: I use alsamixer from a console or xterm and manage settings visually  (is a ncurses frontend), then use alsactl store to make settings permanent.11:36
Fudgehey TVasEyes , i use that too but i'm figuring out a command  for when sound is muted since i use text to speech and would have no way of knowing what is happening11:37
TVasEyesah, ok. sorry.11:38
Fudgeah pacmd set-sink-volume 0 100%11:39
TVasEyes:)11:39
Fudgeno need to be sorry its  a good suggestion :D11:39
TVasEyesglad you found it though.11:39
Fudgegrep'd logs, now to read up on that man page, i really wanna try the daily of xubuntu coz i like xfce but have never been able to get it to work that great with gnome-orca unless you basically use all the apps you would normally use in a gnome desktop11:41
lordjjHi. I have a primary partition holding a windows, and an extended partition with 6 logical partitions inside it, 3 of which are /, /home, and swap for an existing distro. I want to set up a new distro with only a /, and swap. What's the best course of action? Creating a new primary partition for the new distro's /? And if I do so, can I share the swap of the existing distro? Or should I make a logical partition for the new distro inside the extended partit11:42
lordjjion?11:42
Fudgewell u can share swaps yes, only one OS will use it at any one time11:43
lordjjIf I set up the new distro on a new primary partition (say sda3), can it access the swap partition that's in the extended partition (sda7)?11:45
TVasEyesyes.11:45
Fudgeyou will notice when you are on the live cd that it will use your swap as well11:45
lordjjThey don't have to be inside the same primary/extended partition then, if I understand correctly.11:45
TVasEyesnot even on the same hard drive.11:46
lordjjOk, thanks.11:46
lordjjI understand windows needs its own primary partition11:46
Fudgeyou could always shrink an existing partition within your extended and use the space for your new OS on a /11:46
lordjjThe same is not true for having multiplr distros?11:46
Fudgesome BSD flavours require primary11:47
TVasEyesfor instance lordjj, I've /boot in a primary and / and swap in logical partitions.11:47
lordjjAh, alright.11:48
Fudgei have wondered if you could install windows ot a primary then use gparted to move it into a logical and tell grub where it is, if it would work11:48
TVasEyesno idea, sounds dicey.  (I got rid of my last Win XP a couple of weeks ago :) )11:48
lordjjhm11:49
lordjjAny advantage to having the new distro's / on its own primary partition? Performance, or anything?11:49
TVasEyesFudge: wouldn't try though since C: drive is first partition on first hd, I think11:49
TVasEyesshould make little difference lordjj, the distinction is largely historical.11:50
Fudgei could always dd a windows machien and throw it at a linux machine and see what happens, even though it would have a hissy fit with the hardware and basically not work11:50
Fudgei'm told even wubi ubuntu still runs as good as native11:51
TVasEyesyes, "Windows Advantage has detected ...."  :)11:51
lordjjI tried wubi once, it got corrupted after a power failure11:51
Fudge:D bbs booting xubuntu precise11:51
TVasEyeslordjj: you could install new distro(s) as virtual machines on existing system.11:52
TVasEyesI really rate working with VirtualBox.11:52
lordjjYes, I understand, but I'm aiming for a full install.11:52
TVasEyesok.11:52
lordjjI supposed I'll default to ext4. Anyone recommends ReiserFS?11:53
baizonnot me :)11:54
baizonbtrfs :)11:54
TVasEyesI use journaled FS only for /home and for my database partition. / and /boot are largely static, so ext2 is fine.11:54
baizonbut its not solid stable :D11:54
lordjjThis discourages me baizon "Warning: Btrfs has not yet implemented a fsck utility. The filesystem cannot be repaired if corruption occurs."11:54
baizonyes thats what i ment in my last line :)11:55
Sysiext4 is solid and fast enough11:56
lordjjdo you consider /var static though?11:56
baizonSysi: agree11:56
Sysiyou want ssd anyway11:56
baizoni use ext4 for all my partitions11:56
baizonext4 is optimized for ssd, am i right Sysi ?11:57
Sysinot really11:57
baizon:(11:57
baizonbut its the best file system11:57
Sysinot reallywell, TRIM might be ext4 only11:57
baizonif not then i have to research11:58
baizoncause im planning to buy a ssd in the next month11:58
lordjjI'm a bit concerned about what Grub will show me after I install the new distro. I suppose that's always a simple fix though.12:02
phillipmaloneywhat do you expect grub to show you?12:04
lordjjWell I had it where Grub had 2 linux entries that pointed to the same newly isntalled distro once12:05
phillipmaloneythats odd12:07
Fudgeok guys maybe someone can give me some really simple info on xubuntu how it boots12:22
Fudgesince i cant really see what's happening on the screen, can someone fil me in on what happens12:23
Fudgeis it like ubuntu, boots into a live desktop?12:23
Fudgeat the boot screen does f5 still have accessibility boot options, f5, choosen language then screen reader is # 3 etc12:24
Fudgeif anyone has a live image they could boot from to tell me that would be really helpful :)12:25
* metasansana pulls out the boot usb12:40

Fudge:D thanks12:42
metasansanacrap I forgot I put Debian on this thing12:43
metasansanaIll have to reconnect my dvd drive12:43
Fudgeahahah loL its all good12:43
Fudgethe xubuntu installation guide says The installation process for Xubuntu is basically the same as for Ubuntu. Please refer to the Ubuntu Installation Guide for more information.12:44
Fudgewhich tells me that hopefully the new accessibility method from oneiric pushing control S when you hear the drums sound should activate accessibility, not sure for xubuntu though since gnome-orca i believe is not part of the iamge12:44
Fudgeimage, maybe they shoudl fork it to zoo-orca loL12:45
metasansana:/12:46
metasansanayou mean ctrl+s at log in12:46
metasansana?12:46
metasansanaor at boot time ?12:46
Fudgewhen the desktop loads on live cd12:48
metasansanawell xubuntu is xfce12:48
Fudgei think it is the same as the boot otion pushing f5 and choosing language, the accessibility you want and then proceeding that way12:48
Fudgeyep i know12:48
Fudgeall i could see is a box coming up when i hit enter and going away again after hitting enter again, loop.12:49
metasansanaok let me check12:49

hobgoblinI have clementine, gmusicbrowser, parole - start it playing - they don't start playing16:39
hobgoblinthen they appear to hang16:40
hobgoblinjust looked at the laptop - there were updates for both the good and the bad queued - guessing it's to do with that16:40
hobgoblinjust updating the lappy - see if it breaks the same :)16:41
Sysihave you tried rebooting?16:42
hobgoblinmore than once ... just waiting for the laptop to finish then at least I can say it's not just this machine16:42

Sysisudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install gnome-settings-daemon17:11
mongytried that out once, and onboard loaded, but apart from that I never really saw anything else happening.. did not think to try the keys17:11
hobgoblinSysi: well no idea what's up - but I've reported it against audacious/parole/gmusicbroswer - I suspect one would have done and the others are dupes though - thanks for help17:24
hobgoblinI've had a few other people check in ubuntu - no problems17:28
lordjj40GB for / (including home and everything) should be enough (knowing that I store all my media on other partitions) right?17:41
hobgoblinI'd say so17:41
SpiKe_SpiegelIt's ok, I personnally use 20 GiB for / , so it lets you 20 GiB for /home17:46
hobgoblinmy / is about 16GB - use about 9Gb - but most of my data is music and that lives elsewhere17:47
lordjjI'm just gonna put it all in one partition17:48
hobgoblinit'll be fine17:49
lordjjYeah my current install is only using 9.5 GB. I wonder if 40GB is too much now :p17:49
hobgoblinI stopped using a seperate /home long ago17:49
lordjjI used to at first, but I'd always fill it up, and end up having unused GBs in the / partition17:50
hobgoblinIf all your data is elsewhere then I would think that 40 is too much - depends what you intend to do and install I giuess17:50
lordjjI usually store my stuff elsewhere.17:51
hobgoblinlordjj: I stopped once I started using other drives for data - seemed pointless, if I wanted I could just symlink - but as it is moutning in /mnt suits me fine17:51
lordjjI might experiment with DEs though, not sure how big those can get17:51
hobgoblinmmm - you want me to have a look?17:52
lordjjSure17:52
hobgoblinubuntu - 96Mb, kubuntu - 375Mb - other *boxes won't be much at all17:53
lordjjhm, there's enough space then17:53
lordjjMaybe I'll go 30GB17:54
hobgoblinyou can always remove them - as long as you actually remove not just the *-desktop package17:54
lordjjYeah, i'd have to find 'em ony by one17:55
lordjj*one by one17:55
hobgoblinnope17:56
hobgoblinhttp://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce17:56

ubottuThe linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal20:26
MsPelledtx, ubottu - got the link20:26
mongyand what if that file is a problem and it's not removed by apt?  then what20:26
GridCubeMsPelled: to delete files use a file manager, try to never use a terminal to do rm its VERY VERY DANGEROUS TO USE IT20:26
XartaoXyet another query from me: I'll be around now and then 'til I get up to speed here =]20:26
XartaoXcan anyone direct me to some help with applying seperate ICC profiles to each monitor in my dual-head setup?20:27
MsPelledgridcube: too late?20:27
MsPelledeep.20:27
XartaoXi've created a profile for each monitor already, using LProf20:27
mongyok then.   try and run it then20:28
GridCubeMsPelled: ok, but you could pretty much do a lot more of harm doing it than anything you actually had20:28
MsPelledwill read some more before I screw up more files... and maybe that's why catfish is acting silly?  did I screw it up??20:28
GridCubenah20:28
GridCubeMsPelled: catfish depends on python, and its version number, and md5 number does not coincide with what you have, so its saying "lol this is not what i know is safe to run so i wont run it"20:29
GridCubeyou see, if you google your error its a pretty common one20:30
MsPelledOhhhhh. I think I know what I did!  I had to install TextSTAT - which needed an older version of Python20:30
MsPelledso there's a mismatch20:30
GridCubethere you have it20:30
MsPelledgrid, I tried to google this, but didn't find anything20:31
MsPelledso ... fixing python is key?20:31
GridCubeindeed20:31
MsPelledahhh.20:31
MsPelled*runs off to research "how to unscrew-up Python" on google.20:31
GridCubeMsPelled: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=%22RuntimeError%3A+Bad+magic+number+in+.pyc+file%2220:32
